Flea Market To Benefit Wildlife West
by John Weckerle
A flea market featuring items donated to support Wildlife West Nature Park and ease the distress created by the Town of Edgewood’s decision to eliminate funding for the annual music festival will be held in the Liberty Development (old Radio Shack building) parking lot on Saturday, July 19, from 7 a.m. to noon. The Park is also holding a raffle of several special items including a “nearly new” (used twice) electric motor and an electric wheelbarrow, both donated by Howard Calkins; a recliner valued at $500 donated by the Furniture Connection; and a calf donated by Rita Loy Simmons. For more information and to purchase raffle tickets, contact the Park at 505-281-7655, toll free at 877-981-9453, or by e-mail at info@wildlifewest.org.
